  3. Hi Warrima , Has 12 month warranty from place bought who have stated take to MG dealership to repair on phoning MG Phetchabun and describing problem told a common problem with MG manual gearbox with no solution this put wife off so did not travel the 70 kilometers to check it out could be like Lasessit said just fobbed her off Thanks HauptmannUK, excellent Idea but I do not look forward to trying to explain, how wife and her sister go about one in car in first gear with clutch in one pushing to see if it moves freely Thanks All
  4. Hi HauptmannUK, Problem on Citroen must have taken some finding and the relief when finally discovering the answer must have made you say blooming heck unbelievable. I hope I can say same soon, unfortunately not being in Thailand at the moment I have to rely on wife's observations and she is in no way mechanically minded. I did observe problem over Skype not ideal I know but sure enough just the art of engaging first gear causes engine to stop could not really determine if this was cut out or stall I have asked her to go to a few local garages, some of these lads are good and might have an idea or two Thanks for your input all ideas welcome Kind Regards Peter
  5. Hi All I have just purchased an MG Grand D in Thailand 3 years old with 8000 Kilometers on the clock. A really beautiful vehicle but every time my wife selects first gear the engine cuts out,all other gears select no problem. My wife is a good driver and has driven many different vehicles. She has have been in contact with the MG dealership in Phetchabun to be told a common problem with MG manual gearbox with no solution, can this be true. I would be extremely grateful if anyone has experienced an MG gearbox problem like this with their solution or if anyone has any ideas as to what the problem may be Kind Regards Peter
  6. Hi Sometimewoodworker Skype was not the issue both my wife and myself do not remain on line 24/7 I call using cheap international call just to make contact at this point we go online and use Skype no issues there. It,s the phone I use for the cheap call after years of displaying it,s number ( so wife knows it,s me ) Now when I call a Bangkok number appears, at first wife would not answer ( unknown number ) But now she knows this number now relates to me so we are Ok Just wondered why after years that my caller ID number should change to a Bangkok one regards Peter
  7. Hi sometimewoodworker, That is what I have done for the last 10 years use cheap phone with dedicated international calls to Thailand Just to say OK Skype now end call and we pick up on Skype it has worked well for us. Just this last month caller ID shows Bangkok number not mine she now recognizes this number as me calling and answers Something has obviously changed which has left us a little baffled as to what. People have answered on this forum to say they to have had a different number show up in caller ID so not an isolated or unusual incident. Always good on this forum for help and shared experiences, I read every day some people in real need of help getting excellent advice from genuine people willing to be of assistant. Myself a few years back problem with 60 day Visa Question asked help given problem resolved Thank you Regards Peter
  8. Hi Smutcakes, I understand wife says such a large increase this last year in scam calls that she is reluctant to answer unrecognized numbers Partly my fault I have drummed into her to be wary always someone wants to put hand in your pocket This last two weeks I have received three scam calls in UK first in a long while must have entered my number were I should not have, be careful and safe everyone. Regards Peter
  9. Hi oxo, yes calling from Uk I have used Lycra mobile for years and its only to make contact then we Skype unless Lycra have changed its format my number has always appeared in her caller ID Called today same thing Bangkok number now put down as me calling Thank you for your replies Peter
  10. Can anyone help with strange phone number. Called wife Wednesday Friday and Saturday no answer finally got through later on Saturday We both have caller ID on our phones and have not changed phones or numbers for years but for some reason this last week when I phoned her it shows a completely different number and because of all the scam phone calls lately she would not answer and was quite shocked when her curiosity took over and answering the phone at last heard me the number appears to be from Bangkok and is completely different to mine. Has this happened to anyone else and does anyone know how this can happen. Kind Regards Peter
